EPISTOLA Romanos 6. 19 -23 † We welcome Fr. Edward Brodsky, FSSP to Immaculate Conception Church. He will give first blessings after both Sunday Masses today. Hermanos: Hablare a lo humanso en atencion a la faqueza de vuestra carne. Como habeis entregado vuestros miembros a la escalvitud de la impueza y la iniquidad, empleadlos ahora para que sirvan a la justicia. Que fruto sacasteis entonces de ello? Ahora os avergonzais. Porque el fin de todo esto es la muerte. Mas ahora que estais libres del pecado y habies sido hechos siervos de Dios, cogeis por fruto vuesto la santificacion, que tiene como fin la vida eterna. Porque la paga del pecado es la muerte; y el galardon de la virtud, la vida eterna en Jesucristo nuestro Senor. † Monday is the 4 th of July and the office will be closed. EVANGELIO Mateo 7. 15 -21 † Immaculate Conception had met its Progress goal. participated. En aquel tiempo: Dijo Jesus a sus discipulos: Cuidaos de los falsos profetas que vienen a vosotros vestidos con piel de oveja, mas por dentro son lobos rapaces. Por sus frutos los conocereis. Por ventura se cogen uvas de los espinos, o higos de los zarzales? Asi, todo arbol bueno da buenos frutos, y todo arbol malo produce frutos malos. No puede el arbol bueno dar malos frutos, ni el arbol malo darlos buenos. Todo arbol que no da buen fruto sera cortado y echado al fuego. Asi, pues, por sus frutos los conocereis. No todo el que me dice : !Senor, Senor !, entrara en el reino de los cielos; sino el que hiciere la voluntad de mi Padre celestial, ese es el que entrara en el reino de los cielos-Credo.

Shannon arrived safely to his new apostolate. Keep him in prayer. Thank you to all who These brothers, the Apostles of the Slavs, were born in Thessalonica, in 827 and 826 respectively. Though belonging to a senatorial family they renounced secular honors and became priests. They were living in a monastery on the Bosphorous, when the Khazars sent to Constantinople for a Christian teacher. Cyril was selected and was accompanied by his brother. They learned the Khazar language and converted many of the people. Soon after the Khazar mission there was a request from the Moravians for a preacher of the Gospel. German missionaries had already laboured among them, but without success. The Moravians wished a teacher who could instruct them and conduct Divine service in the Slavonic tongue. On account of their acquaintance with the language, Cyril and Methodius were chosen for their work. In preparation for it Cyril invented an alphabet and, with the help of Methodius, translated the Gospels and the necessary liturgical books into Slavonic. They went to Moravia in 863, and laboured for four and a half years. Despite their success, they were regarded by the Germans with distrust, first because they had come from Constantinople where schism was rife, and again because they held the Church services in the Slavonic language. On this account the brothers were summoned to Rome by Nicholas I, who died, however, before their arrival. His successor, Adrian II, received them kindly. Convinced of their orthodoxy, he commended their missionary activity, sanctioned the Slavonic Liturgy, and ordained Cyril and Methodius bishops. Cyril, however, was not to return to Moravia. He died in Rome, 4 Feb. , 869. At the request of the Moravian princes, Rastislav and Svatopluk, and the Slav Prince Kocel of Pannonia, Adrian II formed an Archdiocese of Moravia and Pannonia, made it independent of the German Church, and appointed Methodius archbishop… Methodius went to Constantinople , and with the assistance of several priests, he completed the translation of the Holy Scriptures, with the exception of the Books of Machabees. He translated also the "Nomocanon", i. e. the Greek ecclesiastico-civil law. The enemies of Methodius did not cease to antagonize him. His health was worn out from the long struggle, and he died 6 April, 885, recommending as his successor Gorazd, a Moravian Slav who had been his disciple.
